By nature, people like the strong horse.
“She’s like, so liberated and provocative in her oppression.”
It’s so confusing in our pomo age.
Are we submitting to Islam or is Islam submitting to the West?
US and EU are different. EU is right next to Muslim lands and face real danger of demographic imperialism.
US, in contrast, won’t have to worry about Muslim immigration. Occasional terrorism yes, but no Muslim takeover. US had more to fear from mass immigration from Latin America and Asia. And its big black population.
Still, it’s all connected since the US foreign policy is controlled by globalists who keep messing up the Middle East. If not for US and its encouragement to allies like Saudis, Syrian Civil War would have ended long ago, and there would have been no massive refugee crisis. And Iraq is a mess cuz of US policies.
And then, Obama and Hillary really did it by toppling the Gaffer of Libya.
US and its vassal EU has already submitted to the GLOB. The GLOB has worldwide ambitions, and that means messing up MENA.
GLOB’s strategy is invade/invite, esp since the ‘humane’ face of Invite masks the brutality of the Invade.
This is especially dangerous because a stable North Africa serves as wall between Europe and Sub-Saharan Black Africa.
That was Gaffer’s warning and extortion to Europe. He will play watchman IF they pay him. (Erdogan also plays this extortion racket somewhat.) But the fall of the Gaffer really broke the dam.
Muslims should find the image of woman with US-flag veil to be offensive as hell because, since the end of the Cold War, the US has brought more misery to MENA than any other nation.
What is most offensive is the idea that Trump is a bad guy cuz he says NO to ‘refugees’.
The Media don’t ask WHY THE REFUGEES EXIST IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Imagine Hitler invading Poland and then pressing on US to take Polish refugees OR be condemned for its lack of heart.
Imagine Japan invading China and then pressing the US to take Chinese refugees OR be condemned for its lack of humanitarianism.
In order not to fall into the trap set by globalists — “nationalists are anti-human xenophobes because they say NO to ‘refugees’ whereas globalists are so caring cuz they say YES” — , the patriots must press the case of STOP CREATING REFUGEES WITH NEO-IMPERIALIST AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY CONTROLLED BY THE GLOB”.
Trump did suggest as much at times by accusing US foreign policy of messing up the region. But patriots must hammer this point home over and over.
Tulsi Gabbard did just this by pointing out that Syrian people are wondering why the US has aided rebranded Alqaeda in Syria.
Now, Conservatives are loathe to do this because they are so slavish to Jewish Power, and that means no condemnation of Neocon foreign policy.
Trump supporters are quick to condemn Muslims but generally don’t spell out why the Muslims are on the move in such big numbers.
Also, for patriots, the idea that the US has become an imperialist power is difficult to swallow. But, patriots must go there because true nationalism means not only defense of homeland but respect for the homelands of others as well. And it’s been the US, controlled by the GLOB, that’s been messing up homelands all over.
Interesting to compare Shepard Fairey’s poster with the photograph he worked from. In subtle ways, he made the woman in the photo less ethnic, more glamorous.

Fairey was sued by the photographer who took the photo of Obama that the HOPE poster was based on. I think the photographer had a legitimate grievance, as it appears that Fairey may have just put the photo into Photoshop, desaturated it, adjusted the contrasts, and then used the posterize effect. Granted, there would be some additional cleaning up and finessing, but the photographer deserves most of the credit.
Like Banksy, Fairey benefits greatly from producing images that appeal to the politically correct. He knows his market. (Banksy is more creative than Fairey, though.)
Sounds like your white privilege, norming Caucasian looks as "less ethnic" is showing here.Replies: @(((Joshua))), @Mark Caplan, @Charles Erwin Wilson

Funny but not so. One meaning of an “ethnic” is a member of an ethnic group living within the borders of a different ethnic group (Am Heritage Dict).
This ‘artist’ has a nice little gimmick going. He merely picks up on some available photo, not even one he took himself, and alters it. He gets rich off of this. Just add some evocative words such as obey and he’s another Warhol. I know things are too far gone by now but it’s still irritating to see the flag being used for clothing and in other inane ways. What’s next, flag toilet paper?

whoosh
Islam hasn’t been the strong horse in 500+ years. Its terrorism is driven by its weakness and backwardness relative to the West, and the cognitive dissonance that generates.
For a long time I couldn’t buy the premise of Robert Ferrigno’s futuristic dystopian thriller Prayers for the Assassin, which includes the mass conversion to Islam of blue-state America after incidents of nuclear terrorism.
But now I see how it’s perfectly plausible: immigration chic, self-loathing, anti-Christian/anti-Western mania, oikophobia, etc. A witch’s brew of abnormality, served hot or cold.
I'm starting to see tons of green shoots everywhere on this hypothesis.
Basic psychology. People want to belong to something. They want to belong to something confident and proud. Mark Steyn wrote a few years back if Western youth have to choose between two competing identities, one cringing and apologetic ("We'll try to check our white privilege!") and a second that's confident and muscular, don't be surprised if more start to choose the latter.
Is there any evidence of a conversion trend?Replies: @william munny, @Percy Gryce

Not true. E.g. See Putin’s father compared to Putin’s mother. The mother looks more like an ethnic Slav, but Putin’s father could pass for a native of any country in Northern Europe. Putin himself looks like even more of an ethnic Slav than his mother.
Of course it is always nice to see the thought police on duty.
Putin's father looks North Slavic. Putin looks more Russian Finno-Ugric than Slavic.
Putin's mother could pass in a lot of places in Europe, but probably mostly in the Balkans.
Then why did the feminists go topless at the Austin Pussy-Hat rally? They don’t want us to look and then they make us look.
I could see feminists getting behind this.
They already have. Google burqa vs. bikini, especially in images. Third-wave feminism has a sick, obsequious affinity for orthodox Islam.

We are a Caucasian country? If you asked the state apparatus that the people of the USA have put into place, it would emphatically deny that we are a Caucasian country, and would have done so at least for the past half century if not longer.
Find me an authoritative reference that states that the U.S. is a Caucasian country, as opposed to something by a group that wishes it were.
Even Trump, the biggest wrecking ball in decades, hasn’t even come close to expressing anything like that.

Come on Dave. Their “terrorism” is self defense against our–or should I say (((our)))?–colonization, occupation, and bombing of their homelands.
You seem a bit confused there.
Putin’s father looks North Slavic. Putin looks more Russian Finno-Ugric than Slavic.
Putin’s mother could pass in a lot of places in Europe, but probably mostly in the Balkans.
Thank you. I’m really doing you guys a favor.
As noted by others…I’m not always up on my post-modernist transgressions, so, to the extent the USA-themed hijab ironically highlights a point., what is that, exactly?

So why the Muslim terrorism against Belgium?
Which is why you converted to Islam after Beslan right?
This isn’t entirely wrong, as it far as it goes, but why is the Islamic world the hub of international terrorism whereas Christians/Pagans/Buddhists/Hindus in Africa, Asia, and Latin America don’t do such things? It’s not for the lack of grievances against Western countries. The “cognitive dissonance” has a lot to do with it: the Muslim conviction of their spiritual and cultural superiority clashes with the fact of their material impotence.

Not if the anti-Western Left Wing elites have it their way. Michigan has 2 majority Muslim cities, Hamtramck and Dearborn. The Left wants to turn the entire United States into one huge Dearborn/Hamtreamck. Atheist Chinamen, Catholic Latin Americans, and Catholic Filipinos are no longer seen as culturally alien enough by the anti-Western elites. In order to annihilate Western civilization for good you really need an extremely alien group that has a zero percent assimilation rate like Muslims to get the job done.

Supports my theory exactly. Today’s white women are not protesting that they may lose their freedoms, they are angry that they have been given those freedoms in the first place. They hate us because we gave them divorce, the pill, abortion, careers– instead of standing up to them like real men. Today’s feminist will tomorrow be in a harem, and she will like it.
I really appreciate a lively discussion on this thread with my post being in moderation for the last 24+ hours. Never mind.
Is there any evidence of a conversion trend?Replies: @william munny, @Percy Gryce
There’s been some press coverage of a trend of Hispanic conversion to Islam. There’ve also been some celebrity converts like Dave Chapelle and Jemima Goldsmith and a number of rappers.
But what I was getting at is: I can now see as plausible contemporary self-hatred and Islamo-chic added to fear of nuclear terrorism translating into a mass conversion movement.
Like the Latino Rick Moranis in San Bernardino.
